When you are looking for delicious cheeses for your favorite meals and recipes… Castello Cheese has you covered. Available in the specialty cheese section at your local Publix, there are options for all your favorite meals. Whether it’s a holiday feast, romantic dinner, or a summertime barbecue, Castello Cheeses will help you make every meal perfect!
Take that Italian Pasta Salad that you see above. Castello Havarti adds the perfect flavor and texture so that you get amazing taste bite after delicious bite!
Versatile and oh so delicious, Castello Havarti is a traditional Danish cheese type. It’s soft and creamy flavor with just a hint of tanginess. It is so unique that it even has an official EU Protected Geographical Indication status. This means that only cheeses produced in Denmark in line with all specific production techniques can earn themselves a name of Havarti. This cheese is lusciously smooth, balanced and mild enough to suit all palates.
Try it for the most amazing grilled cheese, folded inside your favorite omelet, sliced or cubed on a cheese tray… or grab a few ingredients and make a big batch of my Italian Pasta Salad. This is my go-to recipe to bring to a summer potluck and serve at my backyard barbecue. It can be made ahead of time and is easily doubled or tripled so you can serve a few or a lot of hungry folks.
Now is the perfect time to give my recipe a try. Look for a digital coupon to save on your next purchase of Castello Cheese at Publix. Grab a pack and a few ingredients and you’ll have a tasty meal ready in a flash.
